************************SOLD SEPTEMBER 4, 2019************************ $2000. 00USD Price lowered to reflect age and wear on this rig. It’s solid. Basically you have a solid reserve, container and hardly used AAD. The main canopy should be replaced though, but it flies and flares perfectly. Free fly friendly, Wingsuit friendly. Originally from Skydive San Diego in California, lucky number 17 rig was one of their student rigs. They estimated about a thousand jumps on it when I got it, so I’m unsure of total number of jumps, estimated ~1400 at this time. That may be an overestimate, but for safety let’s just say at least 1400. I have put on exactly 380 jumps on this complete system as is. It originally had a Vigil I In it, that had one save, which I put in my other rig and bought a brand new Vigil II + for this rig in 2014. In late 2014 the rig was overhauled by Aviva Maidman master rigger in Eloy, Arizona. New leg straps, proper patches on the canopy, new deployment bag and bridal chute, new Vigil II+, new line set and a thorough look over. Exactly 30 jumps on entire system, 0 saves, since it’s full checkup in 2014. It is a perfect wingsuit canopy, rectangular, opens straight, easy to pack, has an extended 8ft bridle, flies very docile, still has lots of flare. Size: 5 ft 8 to 6ft tall, ~160-200lbs 2003 Talon FS container. New leg straps. ~1400 jumps total. (Serial #: 12836). Can go down to 170 main canopy size. PD190 Silhouette in there now. 2014 New Pilot chute with plastic hollow Wingsuit handle, new bridle and new deployment bag. 30 jumps on them. 2004 Performance Designs PD190 Silhouette canopy. (Dual surface ZP and F111). Great flare. 2 professional patches about 1.5”square each done on top surface. New line set 2014 with exactly 30 jumps on it. ~1400jumps total. (Serial #: S1190-002422). Should be replaced, but it still has a little bit of crispyness and good flare left. It is safe to fly as it is, the trim is good with the newer lineset which is still white and rigid, its easy to fly and has no issues other than being old with a couple of patches. 2003 PD 193 Reserve with 2 reserve rides, perfect condition, no damage. One save was mine on the old Vigil 1 that was in the container. That save was a two out, low pull, my fault. (Serial#: 028578) 2014 Vigil 2+ AAD with exactly 30 jumps and 0 saves. This is effectively a nearly new, hardly used unit. (Serial#: 41857) This is a perfect transition setup from student to novice, for an excellent price. The rig is flyable, its safe, its airworthy as it is. You do not need to do anything to it, except think about getting a new Main canopy for it in the next while. Buyer pays shipping, will ship anywhere. **************SOLD*****************************SOLD***************************************$2,000.00

You love your Valkyrie. You’ve been jumping her for the past two years. She gives you the buttery smooth openings, responsiveness, and power you crave! But you’re ready for more…and we’re ready to give it to you! Introducing the Hybrid Valkyrie – everything you love about the Valkyrie but more. We incorporated sail fabric into the ribs to give her more power, more responsiveness, and longer swoops than a standard construction Valkyrie. Think of her as a “Valkyrie on steroids” with more sensitivity in the harness and more stopping power than ever before. Available as an option when purchasing a custom wing, the sail ribs are a great addition for a seasoned or first-time Valkyrie owner. When choosing between the All ZP and Hybrid Valkyrie, keep in mind that the sail ribs will increase pack volume by about a half size in comparison to the All ZP Valkyrie. The overall lifespan of the canopy is similar to that of an all-ZP wing.

After years of development, we are excited to introduce PD’s first wingsuit-specific canopy HORIZON. The Horizon is a low-bulk 7-cell main canopy designed to be an easy ‘off button’ to end your wingsuit flight with as little drama as possible. The emphasis for developing this canopy was on eliminating deployment problems caused by the burble of larger wingsuits, without sacrificing a great flare or responsive handling. In fact, we think the Horizon has the best stopping power of any canopy in its class. Best of all, the Horizon gives you the ability to upsize as many as two full sizes compared to a non-crossbraced ZP canopy main, meaning you can fit a larger canopy in your existing rig for wingsuit jumps. No need for a new container!

Performance Designs is venturing into the world of BASE. PD BASE. Since 2000, Performance Designs has been building the Ace and Blackjack BASE canopies for Consolidated Rigging. Building on the legacy and great reputation of Consolidated Rigging's BASE canopies, PD is excited to introduce the Proxy. Our mission was to build the ideal canopy for wing suit BASE and alpine flying. We wanted something that was low volume, low weight and high performing. We went to great lengths to exceed your expectations of what a low volume BASE canopy can be. With over 30% less volume and 20% less weight than standard construction BASE canopies, jumpers who desire the lightest and lowest profile container will love the Proxy. Whether you're hiking up that mountain or flying that line, you'll notice the reduced weight and drag. The Proxy is also a great flying canopy, with good on heading performance, a truly excellent glide ratio and powerful flare.

The CF Storm is similar to the Storm, but altered to meet the needs of the serious CF competitor or CF demo jumper. It offers a great speed range, solid handling (even when your dock may not be picture perfect), and a powerful flare. The CF Storm comes standard with a mesh slider, which in addition to other design changes, provides quick sub-terminal openings.
-
With great openings and a powerful flare, the Storm is truly a 7-cell that thinks it's a 9-cell. While in some ways similar to the Spectre, the Storm has a shorter snivel, a steeper and faster glide, wider speed range, and more dynamic flare. Looking for a reliable canopy that will keep you challenged? Have you been searching for the perfect wingsuit canopy? Considering some occasional CF, but not ready to buy a second canopy? The Storm is a great option for you.

From openings to landings, the Pulse is stress-free fun. It is a lightly-elliptical 9-cell canopy designed for novice to experienced fun jumpers. Pack volume has been reduced significantly by combining PD’s proprietary low- bulk fabric technology on the bottom skin and ribs with zero porosity fabric on the top skin. The Pulse offers soft, consistently on-heading openings with a shorter snivel. It has a very flat glide, short recovery arc, and easy landings. It is highly responsive, very capable, and lots of fun to fly!
-
The PD Reserve is PD’s best-selling canopy of all time, trusted by pilots all over the world. With its 25+ year track record, it is known for its responsive flight characteristics, predictable handling, excellent glide in brakes, and outstanding landings. Designed and built with every potential situation in mind, the PD Reserve was tested well beyond the maximum weight and speed limits required for TSO certification. If you want proven reliability, the PD Reserve is for you.

The Sabre2 is a powerful semi-elliptical 9-cell canopy that is a great all-around choice for intermediate and experienced jumpers. Our most popular main canopy ever, the Sabre2 feels aggressive at higher wing loadings but is quite tame when lightly loaded. This canopy is best known for its powerful flare and wide speed range. With neat packing and proper deployment technique, Sabre2 openings are consistently soft and predictable. The Sabre2 has a steeper glide and a longer recovery arc than the flatter gliding Pulse or Stiletto and is an excellent choice for those wanting a bit more aggressive piloting experience but are not interested in the demands of the Katana or Velocity.
-
The Valkyrie builds on the dominating performance of the Peregrine and is designed as a step up from the Comp Velocity. Unlike the Peregrine, the Valkyrie was intended for freefall use, so the opening performance was a major consideration in the development of the canopy. And the openings on the Valkyrie are superb! Not to mention, it is simply a blast to fly. Whether you're filming tandems all day or dedicated to canopy piloting, the Valkyrie will reinvigorate the everyday jump and excite even the most passionate canopy pilots. We loved making it. You're going to love flying it.
-
The lightly-tapered 7-cell Spectre is one of the most popular canopies PD has ever produced. A surprisingly flat glide and soft on-heading openings (with plenty of snivel!) make the Spectre the canopy of choice for the professional cameraman or the everyday wingsuiter. The Spectre is also known for its smooth, progressive response on the toggles. If your priority is predictability, the Spectre is your canopy.

The Navigator offers an unparalleled combination of performance, forgiveness, and durability, while providing the ability to raise the level of student canopy piloting instruction. With its cutting edge design and construction, we are confident it will outperform any other student canopy and maintain this performance over a much longer life span. The Navigator, along with a progressive student canopy training program, will create safer and more competent canopy pilots.
-
The lightly-tapered 9-cell Silhouette is designed to provide responsive handling, even at lower wing loadings often preferred by more conservative pilots. If you're looking for a docile, ‘no fuss’ canopy ride, the Silhouette is a great option for you. Due to the combination of fabrics used in the design, it is easy to pack, provides consistent openings with a short snivel, and has lots of flare power. It is best known for having a flat glide, short recovery arc, and easy-to-time flare. The Silhouette is a good choice for those seeking a canopy that is practical yet fun to fly.
-
The Katana is a fully elliptical nine-cell canopy that is the ride of a lifetime for the experienced canopy pilot. Warning: This canopy is not for the faint of heart. Soft smooth openings, long control range, steep dive, light front riser pressure and a powerful flare make the Katana an excellent choice for those looking for the engine to push their limits. Whether you're considering an 83 or a 170 square foot wing, the Katana can provide the canopy enthusiast with the ride they are looking for now, and will continue to challenge their piloting skills for years to come.

The Optimum Reserve is made from a 30 denier low-permeability, low-bulk fabric available exclusively from Performance Designs. We've combined this fabric with special aerodynamics and extensive reinforcing to create great strength, better performance, and a far smaller pack volume for a given size. The Optimums are rated for maximum exit weights ranging from 220 pounds to as much as 290 pounds! This reserve has successfully been drop-tested at weights and speeds considerably higher than those required for FAA certification according to TSO C23d, the highest standard to-date. The Optimum flies and lands far more like a main parachute with a more powerful flare, by a wide margin, than any reserve we have ever tried.
-
The Vengeance is one of the first airlock sport parachutes on the market. This 9-cell, all zero porosity fabric, is a noticeable step up from the Stiletto with a longer control range, steeper dive, and faster turns.
-
Built solely for canopy piloting competition, the Peregrine pushes the limits of what is possible in canopy flight. It is an ultra-high performance canopy, designed for top-tier competitive canopy pilots. Utilizing the Schuemann wing planform technology, new materials, and enhanced aerodynamics, PD created a wing that continues to dominate the podium.
-
The original PD Sabre, like its successor, was designed to be fun to fly, easy to land, and a great choice for those looking for a general-purpose canopy. Built with zero porosity fabric, the Sabre maintains its opening, flight, and landing characteristics over a much longer life span than the conventional low porosity canopies designed during its time. The Sabre provides consistent on-heading openings. At higher wing loadings, it exhibits more responsiveness to control inputs and additional speed, while at lower wing loadings, it provides a longer control range and more forgiveness..
-
The PD 9-cell, the first product to be released by Performance Designs, was revolutionary in its day. At a time when main parachutes were simply intended to get a skydiver down to the ground, Bill Coe, founder of Performance Designs, believed the performance of Ram-air canopies could be vastly improved. The PD 9-cell raised the bar for all main parachutes; it provided superior flare power and more responsive flight characteristics than the average main.
-
At the time of its release, the fully-elliptical 9-cell Stiletto was seen as the highest performance canopy available to the expert pilot. With improvements in canopy control technique over the years, the Stiletto has now become a very popular choice for experienced jumpers across many disciplines. For those who appreciate responsive handling, snappy turns, flat glide, a short recovery arc, and great landing capabilities, the Stiletto is a fun and practical way to enjoy your canopy flight.
-
Designed primarily for precision accuracy competition and accuracy-type demonstration jumps, the innovative and highly capable Zero is great for the traditional accuracy competitor. And with proper coaching, it is a great choice for those new to the discipline.
-
Since the release of the PD Velocity in 1999, Performance Designs learned lot about cross-braced canopies. While on the surface the Competition Velocity may look similar to a regular Velocity, it is a completely different machine. With improved aerodynamics, better openings, more powerful rear risers, and better slow flight characteristics on the toggles, the Competition Velocity is like a Velocity on steroids. If you are looking for a step up in opening, flight, and landing performance from your current cross-braced canopy, the Competition Velocity is for you.
